Individuals will have the opportunity to exercise informed choice throughout the VR process. Informed choice allows individuals to become active participants in their rehabilitation by assisting them in making meaningful decisions about their VR needs and in selecting the most appropriate employment outcomes, the services needed to achieve the outcomes, entities providing such services, and the methods by which they can be secured.
In addition, informed choice will ensure the selection of a specific employment outcome based upon an objective assessment of the individual's specific situation, including his/her location, and current labor market trends. Informed choice will ensure that the specific employment outcome chosen by the individual is realistic and achievable given his/her unique strengths, resources, priorities, concerns, abilities, capabilities, and career interests.
